Den 4 - California State Railroad Museum

On a beautiful Saturday morning, the Den 4 Tiger Cubs went to the California State Railroad Museum where they learned about the history of trains and the railroad, and also about the important role Sacramento played in that history. They watched a brief documentary about the impact of the railroad on the region, and also about the contributions made by people of different backgrounds. The cubs then meandered around the museum and were able to walk through various historic train cars and even got to watch model trains in an elaborate setup of a trainyard. Afterwards they all enjoyed pizza and a light romp on the fields before calling it a day at Old Sacramento.
